The moving and true story of a Jewish family uprooted and exiled to Siberia.
Esther Rudomin was ten years old when, in 1941, she and her family were arrested by the Russians and transported to Siberia. This is the true story of the next five years spent in exile, of how the Rudomin’s kept their courage high, though they went barefoot and hungry. A magnificent and moving book which will live long in the memory of any reader.
